Epson present an easy to use digital camera

Epson have launched the PhotoPC 2100Z. A digital camera
that has been designed to ensure it is easy to use, even by the first time
digital camera owner. It includes Epson's renowned technology to produce high
quality images for emailing or printing. Features include 5x seamless
optical-digital zoom for greater range flexibility. Email mode will
automatically optimise the image settings for quick emailing once uploaded to a
PC or Mac and a nightscape mode will help to provide clear images in a reduced
light situation.

The PhotoPC 2100Z also features Epson's Print image matching technology. A
unique development that creates a link between the camera and a Print image
matching enabled Epson photo printer, to create the highest quality images
possible. The entire process happens automatically, when the shot has been taken
it will be digitally 'tagged' with the camera's specific optimum image
parameters, including wider colour space, improved sharpeness, superior colour
balance, and contrast adjustment for natural skin tones.

Larger pictures up to A3 size are easily produced from the PhotoPC 2100Z,
thanks to the 3.1 megapixel output using Epson HyPict Technology. Often when a
digital image is enlarged it loses detail, may have blurred edges or background
noise. If the user wishes to create an A3 or A4 image Epson HyPict Technology
ensures their image is crisp, clear and sharp without blurred or jagged edges.

Included with the PhotoPC 2100Z is a 8Mb Compact Flash Card for storing
photos, 4xAA batteries, as well as a range of versatile image management and
manipulation software that provides the user with full control over their
images.

Yasbir Sihan, Business Manager for Consumer Products
comments, 'As people are increasingly using their home PC to communicate to
friends and family the digital camera is playing an important role. The PhotoPC
2100Z is ideal for all the family to email images quickly and easily. Images
taken from the PhotoPC 2100Z and printed on an Epson photo printer will rival
any photo bureau and users need only print the photos they want, all others can
be deleted, therefore eliminating waste'.

Sihan concludes, 'The PhotoPC 2100Z is the essential accessory for every
home'.
